"I realized that most people pass by these statues without paying attention," Geoffroy says on his website. "By putting a floral note in places or on objects, the spectators pay attention to my work [and] rediscover what surrounds it."

Breathing new life into these cold monuments, Geoffrey has named his urban intervention project 'Fleurissements,' which simply means 'flowers' in English. These fresh flower installations only last a day or two, but luckily there is plenty evidence of Geoffrey's beautiful work on Instagram.

Sometimes the statues get flowing manes, like these incredible leaves and purple flowers found on the statue of The Goddess of Bocq in front of the Commune de Saint-Gilles in Brussels.
